Time! (Want a cute timer?)

I saw an article this week on Twitter that I thought you'd enjoy... cute timers! These set of links come from a great blog, EdTech4Beginners. Neil Jarrett, the blogger, provides helpful tips and tools weekly.. check him out!

Some of these timers are iPad apps, so look for the web-based ones.. my favorite is the first, Timerland. Bunnies!

Energy!

Hey, don't forget: with vacation coming, POWER DOWN YOUR DEVICES. Don't just shut the lid, actually turn them off. This is particularly important for your classroom iMac, your SMARTboard, and your classroom iPads. While devices "sleep", that's not the same as a full shut down and restart. Give them a vacation as well!
